Lowell,
Glad to hear how TOTAL RECALL is performing for you...I looked up the
parentage MOTHER EARTH X BONUS MAMA. I wanted to buy TOTAL RECALL last
year but somehow did not end up with it. I know that I will DEFINITELY
be getting it this year!!!
Have you grown ANXIOUS? Bought it last year and the parentage on it is
BONUS MAMA sib. X HALLOWED THOUGHT...both of these parents have
rebloomed for me in USDA zone 5.
What other iris rebloom for you reliably? (I understand that the
weather and other things influence possible rebloom...perhaps I should
ask what iris do you grow that will try to send up a fall bloomstalk
every year?)
